Geographic Information Systems- A framework including easy to use functions for handling and analysing spatial and spatio-temporal data. The package is followed by a graphical user interface (GUI) to make it user-friendly and facilitates interaction with data and visualisation.

Spatial dependence- A collection of functions to create spatial weights objects, for summarizing these objects, and for permitting their use in spatial data analysis; a collection of tests for spatial autocorrelation and functions for fitting spatial regression models.

rGeoJAGS- An R interface for use of the GeoJAGS module within JAGS Bayesian analysis software. This extends JAGS through the inclusion of families of Gaussian Markov Random Field models. Functions to format spatial data for analysis within BUGS are also included

spatial copula- This package is intended to provide the power of copulas to the spatial and spatio-temporal context. It will offer tools and functions to perform spatial analysis exploiting the possibility to fully model the whole dependence structure with copulas.
